Guarantee that your business stands out in a crowded market

Today’s question is from Invincibles.

They ask:

“We launched an online business and are wondering, how do we differentiate ourselves from all the others talking about the same topics?”

This is something that rings near and dear to me. I’ve had to think about it a lot as I was in personal finance, careers, entrepreneurship, and other highly competitive niches.

So I could spend all day talking about this. But instead, I’m going to give you a few examples of how to think about it.

The uncomfortable truth about differentiating yourself online

First, if you think about personal finance, who comes to mind? You have the big names like Suze Orman and Dave Ramsey. Then you have other people who are primarily online like Mr. Money Mustache.

If all you say is, “Hey, save 10% of your money and sign up for my newsletter,” why would I? Other people say the same thing. They have more experience, they have a better looking website, and maybe they’re more attractive. Who knows? But it’s an uphill battle.

Instead, I took a different perspective on the whole space. I said, “Look, keeping a budget and telling people to stop spending money on lattes doesn’t really work.” It was a different philosophy, and I started writing accordingly.

That gave me a different writing style.

I had a certain voice. I used curse words. I made fun of people. I used examples like going out to a bar.

That doesn’t resonate with certain audiences. They left, but other people became more attracted.

Lastly, you can target a different group than normal.

I was targeting young people who were slightly more affluent and wanted to live a Rich Life. They have a very different language and philosophy than a Midwestern couple with three kids does.

She targeted an audience that was typically different than the usual: introverted men.

Then she focused on how she wrote. It wasn’t pushy and it wasn’t pickup. She wrote as a woman helping men become better at dating. It was much more calm and deliberate.

Why? Because that’s her style. And it appeals to her audience.

Stand out from all the noise and build a profitable business

You can appeal to your audience no matter what your market is. Whether it’s fitness, weight loss, dating, writing, or personal finance, a crowded niche isn’t a bad thing. It’s a sign of a healthy market and a huge demand.
